ADHD Assessment for Children and Adolescents
We provide comprehensive ADHD assessment to better understand the reasons behind your child's difficulties with attention, focus, impulsivity, emotional regulation, and everyday functioning at home, school, and everyday life.
Our goal is to provide clear answers, reduce uncertainty, and offer practical recommendations that help your child thrive at home, at school, and in everyday life.
When should I consider an ADHD assessment?
You may consider an ADHD assessment if your child has ongoing difficulties with attention, distractibility, restlessness, impulsivity, following instructions, or managing emotions — especially where these affect school performance despite support. Families often seek an assessment after noticing these patterns over time or following a referral from their paediatrician, GP, or another health professional.
What the ADHD assessment involves
Our assessment process is thorough, structured, and tailored to your child’s needs. It typically includes:
-
Initial parent consultation to understand concerns and developmental history
-
Standardised questionnaires (parent, teacher, and student input where appropriate)
-
Cognitive, attention, and executive functioning assessment
-
Feedback session to discuss findings in clear, practical terms
-
Detailed written report with practical recommendations
What you will receive
Our aim is to ensure the results are not only clinically accurate, but also useful in everyday life. Following the assessment, you will receive:
A comprehensive written report
A clear explanation of the findings
Diagnostic clarification (where appropriate)
Practical recommendations for home and school
Why families seek ADHD assessment
Families often seek assessment because they want:
-
Clarity about what is driving their child’s difficulties
-
Understanding rather than uncertainty or guesswork
-
Appropriate school supports and adjustments
-
Strategies that actually work in daily life
-
Confidence in next steps
An assessment can help bring structure and direction when things have felt unclear.
